LE SSERAFIM took over “Running Man” with “EASY” challenge

The Feb 25th broadcast featured LE SSERAFIM’s Kim Chaewon, Sakura, Kazuha as well as Kim Donghyun and Hong Jinho as guests. Particularly, LE SSERAFIM, who made a comeback with their new song “EASY”, received a warm welcome from the members in their first appearance on “Running Man“.

Sakura, who debuted as an idol in Japan, said, “I debuted in 2011.” Yoo Jaesuk exclaimed, “It’s already her third girl group debut!” Sakura honestly answered the question “Have you made a lot of money?” by saying, “I’ve earned quite a bit.” Kim Chaewon added, “She’s living the life.” When Kazuha, who had experience in ballet, demonstrated ballet moves, Haha proved to be an ardent fan by saying, “It’s really beautiful.“

Afterwards, the members traveled back to the 1990s and engaged in an investment race. To obtain the initial investment fund, each team had to take on challenges, and LE SSERAFIM’s choice of the “Loveable” challenge made Kim Jongkook smile contentedly. Haha’s team successfully took on LE SSERAFIM’s new song “EASY” challenge and claimed first place. However, Jaesuk’s team overwhelmed others by making appropriate diversified investments, and Yoo Jaesuk gained the nickname “Yoo Dojun”.

The second time travel was to the 1970s. Yoo Jaesuk jokingly said “The only person here who was born in the 1970s is Ji Seokjin. According to the production team, the camera director and Ji Seokjin must shoot a personal broadcast together“, leaving Ji Seokjin perplexed. Later, when Kazuha ended up having lunch with everyone and eating jjajangmyeon and jjamppong, she remarked “This scene feels like it’s from a Korean drama“, eliciting laughter.

The third time travel was to the 2000s. Each team had to run with low-frequency massagers attached and carrying hit or miss batons, resulting in various comedic antics from the members. LE SSERAFIM’s Kim Chaewon screamed at the high-frequency sound, while Kim Jongkook showcased his abilities with a run full of anger. The twist came with Sakura. Sakura lost the baton while running, and Ji Seokjin’s team, who turned all their assets into gold and ended up last, faced a crisis.

The episode recorded a viewership rating of 2.7% (Nielsen Korea, based on households in the capital area) and peaked at 6.2%.

Meanwhile, LE SSERAFIM, who recently made a comeback with “EASY”, is attracting attention with active broadcast activities. Kim Chaewon and Sakura also appeared on MBC’s “Point of Omniscient Interfere” on Feb 24th.
